Learn Qur'an online with Tajweed, Hifz & Noorani Qaida
Almuallim connects students across the UK with qualified Quran teachers, for one-to-one online classes in Tajweed, Hifz, Tarjuma and Qur'an reading — from the comfort of home, scheduled in UK time, from £32/month.
What is Almuallim Online Quran Academy?
A UK-focused online Quran academy built around one-to-one teaching, not group classes.
Almuallim is a one-to-one online Quran academy serving students across the UK. Rather than squeezing children into fixed group schedules, every lesson is built around the individual — their level, their pace, their goals. That means a 5-year-old starting Noorani Qaida has a different experience to an adult returning to Quran reading, even though both are taught by the same standard of qualified, vetted teacher.
- Qualified, vetted teachersEvery tutor is Dars-e-Nizami certified and assessed for Tajweed accuracy and teaching ability before joining.
- Structured curriculumNoorani Qaida through to Hifz, with clear milestones at every stage.
- One-to-one online classesEvery lesson is private — no group pacing, no waiting, no falling behind.
- Sisters-only optionFemale tutors available for sisters and young girls who prefer a female-only learning environment.
A learning path, from the first letter to Hifz
Courses are sequenced so every student — child or adult, complete beginner or advanced reader — has a clear next step.

Step-by-step recitation practice with the rules of Tajweed — correct articulation, elongation and pausing — so the Qur'an is read as it was revealed.
Hifz-ul-Qur'an

Tafseer & Islamic Studies

The virtue of learning and reciting the Qur'an
A few verses that speak directly to why we recite with Tajweed, and why learning the Qur'an holds such a high place.
Key Tajweed rules every beginner should know
| Rule | Arabic | What it means | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ghunnah | غُنَّة | Nasal sound held for 2 counts | إِنَّ (inna) |
| Idgham | إِدْغَام | Merging one letter into another | مِن رَّبِّهِمْ (mir-rabbihim) |
| Ikhfa | إِخْفَاء | Hiding the noon sound before certain letters | أَنْتُمْ (antum) |
| Qalqalah | قَلْقَلَة | Bouncing sound on specific letters at pause | قُلْ (qul) |
| Madd | مَدّ | Elongation of vowel sounds | قَالَ (qaala) |
Listening before reciting
Every Almuallim lesson includes guided listening — the teacher recites the passage, the student repeats it, and corrections happen in real time.
"…and recite the Qur'an slowly and distinctly, giving each letter its due."
Surah Al-Muzzammil 73:4
"We have made the Qur'an easy to remember and take heed from — so is there anyone who will reflect?"
Surah Al-Qamar 54:17
"Those to whom We gave the Book recite it as it truly deserves to be recited."
Surah Al-Baqarah 2:121
"The best among you is the one who learns the Qur'an and teaches it to others."
Sahih al-Bukhari 5027
How Almuallim teaches this
Every topic — from Noorani Qaida letters to advanced Tajweed — is taught through a structured, one-to-one approach built for UK learners.
Assessment & goal setting
Your first free trial class includes an informal assessment so the teacher understands your level, goals and preferred pace.
Personalised lesson plan
Lessons are built around you or your child — not a generic syllabus. The plan is reviewed regularly and adjusted as progress is made.
Weekly 1-to-1 live classes
Sessions are scheduled in UK time, with after-school and evening slots available to fit around school terms and family routines.
Home practice guidance
Between classes, students receive clear, short practice tasks — typically 15–30 minutes of daily revision — to build fluency and retention.
Progress reports
Parents receive regular feedback on what has been covered, what needs revision, and what comes next.
Milestone celebration
Completing a Qaida level, a Juz, or a full Quran review is marked and celebrated — motivation matters at every age.
Teaching Quran students across every major UK city
All classes are held online, so where you live in the UK never gets in the way of a qualified, one-to-one Quran teacher.
Our online Quran classes in London run on UK time, so families in East London, Croydon and Ilford can fit lessons around school pick-up. We also teach Quran classes in Birmingham (Small Heath, Sparkbrook, Handsworth) and Quran classes in Manchester (Rusholme, Whalley Range, Didsbury) as well as Glasgow, Leeds and Liverpool. Every city follows the same one-to-one format, from Noorani Qaida through to Hifz.

Built for the way UK families actually learn
Almuallim began with a simple frustration: UK Muslim families kept telling us the same thing — Quran classes that fit real life were almost impossible to find. Group classes rushed the slower learners, dragged for the faster ones, and rarely fitted around school pickups, work shifts and evening routines.
So we built the academy we wished existed. One-to-one from day one. UK-time scheduling. Teachers accountable for real progress, not just attendance. And a curriculum that treats every student as an individual, whether they're five or fifty.
- UK-timezone schedulingMorning, after-school and evening slots that work around British routines.
- Progress you can seeRegular feedback so parents know exactly how their child is progressing.
- Free trial classTry a class before committing, with no pressure to continue.
- No long-term contractsFlexible monthly arrangements — pause or stop whenever it suits your family.
